what's funny is I hear people say they use an adblock so it'll teach people to not use advertising as a source of revenue. When those sites have other means then those same people want to bypass paying. People don't want to pay for stuff and want to have everything too. I fear we will end up in a situation where just few sources of income , content etc will remain ...A monoculture of sorts
- AnonC 6y agoIt’s not funny when you understand people. Many people would never pay for something if they can avoid or bypass that. Some people would pay for something if it were cheap enough. Some people would pay for something if the payment method is convenient. Some people would pay for something only if it’s both cheap and convenient. We’ve seen with the arrival of dozens of streaming services that people are tired again of paying say $10 here, $10 there and soon it just becomes substantial. Nobody has cracked the mass market with micro-payments so far (Blendle tried and failed). So it’s up to the publishers to figure out what works for them and ignore those who will never pay (or stop wasting a lot of time and money on fighting them).
- bilal4hmed 6y agofair enough, people like free stuff and dont like to pay in general. At the end of the day people like getting paid for the work they are doing and people consuming the data, make weak arguments that there are too many services to pay for or its too difficult to pay and prefer stealing.
